Yet again a magnificent Celtic performance was not enough to open up clear blue water between them and Aberdeen, who also maintained their 100% record in the league this season. The sides meet at Celtic Park in 19 days in a game that could go a long way to determining the outcome of the title this season.
Celtic have scored 21 goals in five games this month but it was the quality that stood out most against St Johnstone at McDiarmid Park on Saturday evening. With the score at 0-5 Paulo Bernardo’s strike after a demonstration of pass-and-move football just before halftime was the pick of the bunch, but that was surpassed when Alex Valle played a one-two with Luke McCowan. On receiving possession with space inside the box, the Spaniard backheeled the ball into the path of Adam Idah, who will not have an easier finish all season.
St Johnstone offered considerably less opposition than Falkirk managed against Celtic a week earlier. When Kilmarnock and Hearts overcome their early season exhaustions, the Perth side will surely be in trouble. Aberdeen have earned the right to feel elated at their form and position in the table, but Celtic look imperious this season.
Tomorrow’s Champions League game will be a world away from the half-empty home stands of McDiarmid, but it is a test Celtic will surely benefit from.

A wee ‘Chicken Soup for the Soul’ Celtic style.

Waited ages to catch Bournesouprecipes’ next gag, then I didn’t get it.
I should’ve stuck my hand out further.

Some people have the literary soul of a poet. Sleep in peace Kris Kristofferson.
I love country music, my parents loved swing music and I learned how much it mattered to their generation from the pbs america history of Jazz from twenty years ago.
Anyway, Celtic have been brilliant for weeks now. The only game that matters for the rest of this week is Ross County(A).

I see what you did there👍
Guys,
Its the night before the day when we win away.
Hospitality is her to stay and will probably be expanded.
I still think it is two tier spectating.

reports of 8,000 celtic supporters in germany.
3,800 with official tickets.

hopefully dortmund dont say only 3799 fans went in or you will have a breakdown
With a front three early doors of Kuhn, Kyogo and Maeda we have to believe we can score in the first half, and most possibly later. Real question is to what extent we can reduce the number of chances Borussia Dortmund are able to create against us. A top four team in Germany, last season’s CL finalists, playing at home, probably the most difficult of all of our games. Got to take it on its’ own merit, it is not a knockout tie, it is where we want to be, where Brendan and his staff want to be, and where the players want to be. A real test match.
!!BADA BING!!
Glad you cleared that up about Greg .
Pals often ask if I’m related to him because I’m always praising him , I say I wish I was might get more tickets for games.
Anyhoo I love the wee guy , him and Mcgregor run the show .
Read all your posts big yin, keep the info coming 🤗👍
I`ll be interested in how i feel tomorrow because right now my confidence is growing re a decent result tomorrow.
Cheerio for now.
Marspapa- Taylor has been excellent this season, responding to a challenge for his jersey and Brendan’s coaching, I hope he signs a new contract

Spot on. All what you said, plus some refs just support their brothers.
Trusty’s movement was straight ahead, towards the incoming ball. The opponent was slow to react. He tried to block Trusty, but his lateral move was too late and, rather than get in front of Trusty, he hit him side on. Nothing in this was Trusty’s fault.
Weeron.
The first 15 mins and last 30 mins tomorrow are what will decide our fate
Can we start strong enough?
And do we have enough strength in reserve to keep us there?
The 45 mins in between are important, but not as important as the first 15 (lose a goal or 2 here and the rest matters not) and the last 30 (if we are still in with a shou here, its not our first team that will decide it, but our subs)
We can start strong enough
I hope we score enough to make the last 30 mins null and void
It’s the reverse of what we have done to the spl since march/April
When you look at it like that
You see the mountain we have to climb
I believe we have enough to start strong
Do we have the strength in depth to keep us there is the question
Yup that time again.
Gerrintaethum Celtic!!!!
Get to sleep Mr BRRB.

Good morning from another glorious morning in Turkey.Weather just beautiful today,lovely wee breeze.Empty beaches again.Dug running about like Maddy.
Sooo looking forward to tonight.Will be happy if Gittens ,LW,does not make it.Very fast and tricky.Looked a sore one on Friday,and hobbling badly going off.
This is the day.
Someone selling Hun shares,260,000 of them,for 4.5 pence per share yesterday.
Would suit Origami Club.
Just saw a video of my Grandson and his mob,” Doing the Huddle in the Champions League”,on the street in Dortmund.Brilliant.
Good morning CQN
Looking forward to tonight.
Will be fraught during the game of course.
Play up, the Celtic!!!!
Tonight might be the proverbial basketball game …
Up the Hoops…

Lol.
Values the company at just over £20m.
A snip.
I simply can’t understand why some billionaire doesn’t snap up the club.
Perplexed I am.
Only one hurdle of any significance surely?
The existing large shareholders will have to take 22 pence for every pound invested.
For the mugs, it’s 16 pence …. but they don’t matter.
Real R2ngers men all round who only want what’s best for the club. Surely?
I’ve no doubt they’d rally round and think only of the greater good.
Or, to paraphrase the lyrics Marti Webb once sang “Take that nose out my face”
For Celtic to win tonight I feel that we will have to score more goals than them.
we’ll see CSC
Can’t wait for tonight’s game, to see how far we’ve come.
I’d love to be in Dortmund today but fortunately I’ve got the next best thing – a day in work…
Heading round to my mates afterwards for a few beers and cheer the Bhoys to victory 🤞
Good Champions League day morning from a dry and sunny Garngad.
Let’s stay level headed this will be a big ask to go to Germany and get a result.
A task in which I think Brendan and his team are up for, is our squad there yet?
Mibees aye, mibees naw, but we all certainly hope so.
Now COYBIG

I regret posting my comment last week about supporters wanting players rested lest they stub a toe.
With CCV out with a sore toe, my missus thinks I cursed him.

That being so, post a prediction that Dortmund will win tonight :-))
MSM searching every nook and cranny around the Motherwell area to find a billionaire with a spare pound coin to buy the shares.
I really feel we are up for this..
I really believe this is a new era and we are not just in it to compete.
I really feel there is a new mindset
I really feel this is the day when we win away.
I reaaly feel we can deliver a message on the biggest stage
I really feel the time is now.
Lets go Celtic.
Excitement are us.
European football at the biggest stage refreshes the parts that others can’t reach.
